Item type:Publication, Are we a good match? The (in)congruence of brand personality and perceived brand sustainability(2025-07-03); ; ; Brands are important in transitioning consumer habits and, consequently, making our society a more sustainable one. Sustainability has become an important consideration when consumers and other stakeholders award their votes (e.g., through consumption and employment) to brands. However, brands may experience difficulties when implementing new features, such as sustainability, into their brand image. Brand incongruence can emerge when new information deviates from consumers' expectations. How sustainability may lead to such incongruence is the focus of this study, which investigates the potential (in)congruence of sustainability for brands based on the concept of brand personality. The results of the quantitative survey (n=11,110) illustrate that all five brand personalities (sincerity, excitement, competence, sophistication, and ruggedness) have the potential to embed sustainability into their brand image. The findings of this study lay the groundwork for further research on the critical issue of sustainability and branding and may encourage brand leaders to embed sustainability into brand strategies without fear of brand incongruence.Type:conference paper - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Interessiert sich dein Kunde überhaupt für Nachhaltigkeit? Eine Frage des Milieus. Effektiveres Nachhaltigkeitsmarketing durch wertebasierte Kundensegmentierung(Springer VS, 2023-11-28); ; ; ;Bertram BarthBerthold Bodo FlaigNachhaltigkeit hat einen stetig höheren Stellenwert in den Kaufentscheidungen von Konsumentinnen und Konsumenten. Für Unternehmen ergeben sich daraus verbesserte Bedingungen, verantwortungsvolles Handeln mit wirtschaftlichen Zielen zu vereinbaren. Zugleich wird es aber auch umso wichtiger zu verstehen, welchen Stellenwert Nachhaltigkeit in der eigenen Kundschaft hat. Während sich im Durchschnitt zwar eine höhere Relevanz für dieses Thema abzeichnet, unterscheiden sich die Einstellungen, insbesondere zur ökologischen Nachhaltigkeit, innerhalb der Bevölkerung gravierend – Unterschiede, die, wie im folgenden Kapitel anhand der Schweizer Bevölkerung analysiert, durch soziodemografische Kriterien kaum erfasst werden können. Die Sinus-Milieus hingegen weisen im Bereich der Nachhaltigkeit eine sehr hohe Erklärungskraft auf. Dies verdeutlicht die Notwendigkeit für eine wertebasierte Kundensegmentierung durch Unternehmen, um effektives Nachhaltigkeitsmarketing zu betreiben.Type:book sectionVolume:2 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
